Opinions on my first movie attempt

(dommafia) #21

Nail, good points.

  1. Can you give me some song suggestions to use?
  2. I upped the saturation to make it more colorful, i guess it was a bad choice… fixed.
  3. I can’t comment on that because it’s beside the point you’ll always have your own opinion on that.
    4.I’m a first time adobe after effects user. Have been learning it for a week now and that’s what i know so far. I have read in other forums that doing transitions in frag movies is not recommended so now im kinda confused.
  4. This isn’t a money making venture of mine. I want to make some interesting videos for friends and family that like to play et.

Video is looking much better now, added some scripted cameras and more sprees. Still waiting for some song suggestions because saying “rap suks” or “worst music ever” doesnt really help. thx for your time.

The song “Ain’t Talkin’ 'Bout Dub” by Apollo440 has an awesome guitar intro, and I’ve never heard it in a frag movie. Could be the opening tune in any frag frency.

But it is short. You need some other beat for the main part of the film. Can’t help you there, sorry.

Then there are sub-sections of any good frag movie, with comical misstakes or happenings. A short section of any of these songs would perhaps work in a brief and comical part of your frag movie?:
Baracuda - Ass Up
4 Tune Fairytales - Ding A Dong
M & H Band - Popcorn
Global Deejays - The Sound Of San Francisco
Cometz - Scooby Dooby Boy

If it’s mainly for family and friends I would probably go for some “funny” music (like Klaus Wunderlich in the first part of the KiH movie).

There’s also a lot of great instrumental movie soundtracks just waiting to be used in frag movies (Klaus Badelt, Danny Elfman, Hans Zimmer, Marco Beltrami, …).

I prefer Classical music for frag vids

Thx for all the music suggestions. Getting them as we speak and some others.

Nail— Bethoven? i’ve been looking for those big orchestra type classicals that they use in a lot movies in the action parts, but i dont know any of their names to search for them. If you would name some plz.

Wagner’s Die Walküre: Ride of the Valkyries is prolly best known
I would try Bach, Chopin, as well as Wagner

Here is a good place to find tunes from war movies
